Manilva Vacation Rentals

Manilva is one of the best kept secrets in Andalusia. The Village (pueblo) of Manilva is in the hills 130 metres above sea level.

On the coast you will find Sabinillas, Peurto de la Duquesa with it’s quaint marina, and Castillio which are all part of the Manilva Municipality.
Sabinillas is a small town next door to Duquesa Marina. Sabinillas is typically Spanish with very little tourist influence. There are some fantastic restaurants on the sea front, and tapas bars in the narrrow streets back from the lovely beach front. Sabinillas has Blue Flag Beach status and life guards.
Duquesa Marina has an array of restaurants with every cuisine imaginable: typical Spanish, Italian (including Speciality Pizza) Mexican, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Sea Food, Good Old British Pub Food, Steak Houses - there is anything & everything you need in the Marina, and more!
You can stroll along the beach front from Sabinillas into Duquesa Marina, and if you keep walking your next port of call will be Castillio, a tiny ancient Spanish fishing village with some excellent fish restaurants. Castillo de la Duquesa has an 18 Century fortress on the edge of the village that makes the unspoilt Castillo so attractive.
The ancient white village of Casares is just a 30 minute drive from El Oasis de la Paloma de Manilva. Within a few minutes drive are world championship golf courses such as Valderrama, Sotogrande, Alcaidesa and the San Roque Club as well as many others.
It is recommended to hire a car for holidays in the Manilva area as there are so many things to do for all age groups. It is an ideal base for sightseeing or just relaxing, If you do not want to hire a car from Malaga or Gibraltar Airport then Brunos who are based locally in Duquesa Marina offer all offer an excellent service, whereby you can just hire a car for a few days of your holiday, and relax on the lovely beaches and watch the world go by at a pavement café during the time you do not have a car. Should you not wish to hire a car at the airport then there are many transfer services availble.
If you do want to venture further afield then Manilva is a great location for visiting other parts of Andalusia or Southern Spain, such as the cities of Cadiz, Cordoba, Granada, Jerez de la Frontera, Malaga & Seville, and are all within easy reach and steeped in their own history and culture.
Other activities include riding, sailing, polo, diving, walking, water park, wildlife, culture and history.
